18 GLE 350 panamericana grill install

Whats up guys, my new panamericana grill just got delivered and was wondering if there was any way to install it without taking the front bumper off. If i have to take it off, anyway someone can send me a link to a video that they found helpful?

Looks great. Where did you source the grill? Do you have a link you could share?

Hey quick question....been wanting to change out the grill myself and have the same non amg bumper. Looks great! But are the grill slots chrome (looks like it but double checking). Also originally, I was thinking of changing the bumper and grill together but not now been trying to find someone that what you did, but also blacked out the chrome parts of the non-amg bumper. Looks like it's been a few years you posted this, any chance you blacked out the chrome and can share a pic?
